Android InstantiationException With Fragment (It Is Public)

问题

I have a Fragment (it is not an inner class, and it does not have any constructor whatsoever)

public class PreferenceListFragment extends ListFragment implements OnClickListener

I'm getting this crash report on the Android Developer Console:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity 
ComponentInfo{com.redacted.redacted/com.redacted.redacted.PreferenceActivity}:

I am unable to replicate this on any of my test devices.

Here's the PreferenceActivity.onCreate where the exception is occurring:

public class PreferenceActivity extends FragmentActivity{

    PreferenceListFragment frag;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        setContentView(R.layout.preference);

        frag = (PreferenceListFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().
                findFragmentById(R.id.preference_list_frag);
        frag.setState(AlarmPreferenceState.Selected);
        frag.setIsTwoPane(false);
    }

    .
    .
    .
}

And here is R.layout.preference:

<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <fragment class="com.redacted.redacted.PreferenceListFragment"
          android:id="@+id/preference_list_frag"
          android:layout_width="match_parent"
          android:layout_height="match_parent"/>

</FrameLayout>

Anyone know why I might be getting this exception, and/or how to reproduce it?

回答1:

You MUST have an empty public constructor. Whoever told you to not have a fragment constructor steered you in the wrong direction.

What they might have told you, is to not have a constructor that accepts arguments, since those may not be called by the system when re-creating the fragments. In that case, use the example in the docs to supply arguments to your fragment.

Quoted from the docs :

All subclasses of Fragment must include a public empty constructor. The framework will often re-instantiate a fragment class when needed, in particular during state restore, and needs to be able to find this constructor to instantiate it. If the empty constructor is not available, a runtime exception will occur in some cases during state restore. [1], [2]
